Best step-up between a Kondo M7 and a Lyra Skala


Hello 

I have been using a vintage step-up (UTC A11)  between my preamp Kondo M7 and my cartridge Lyra Skala. The match was really good.

However, I had to give the UTC step-up back to my friend, and I am contemplating another option.

Do someone experienced a Lyra skala with a Kondo KSL-SFz stepup ? or maybe a KSL-CFz (menaing in copper nor in silver)

Or any other combination that match well (the UTC transfo are not easy to get in Europe ...!)

Thanks for sharing your experince

""The Skala has an internal impedance of 5.5Ohm, so I would assume it was either the 50Ohm or 200Ohm taps, but that’s no substitute for knowing for sure. ""

Yes, it was 50 Ohm and the match sounds good ... 

Indeed, I can purchase a Verion/Cotter .. but does some tested it with a Skala and a M7 ? 

And I would really like to know if someone has try the Kondo KSL stetup with the Skala ? 

regards and thanks for your comments and input 
Finally, I decided to invest in the Kondo KSL SFz ...
PLease wait some coiuple of weeks ... and I will update you to confirm (or not) this fit well.

Thank you ALL for your contribution and ideas ...
